Jeff is a lifetime resident of Saugerties, NY and self starting entrepreneur. His business ventures include two restaurants, both thriving and set to expand in the near future. In 2007 Jeff began flight training at Key Air Helicopters in New Jersey and completed his private helicopter certificate in early 2010, then adding his commercial certificate rating shortly after.
Jeff’s passion for iconic military aircraft began with a family military aviation history. His father, Walt Lyons served as door gunner on a Huey UH1-H through two tours in Vietnam. The stories passed down from father to son of rotorcraft aviation spawned a desire for flight that had to be satisfied.
It was from this desire for flight that AirOne Mobility was born.
